Untitled DocumentHelsinki, June 7th
2005 -- Proventia Solutions, a Finnish technology and professional services company
specialised in corporate responsibility and sustainability issues, and Hyperion
(NASDAQ: HYSL), today announced the delivery of non-financial data management
and reporting software for Finland's leading retailer Kesko Oyj. The solution
consists of Proventia’s EnQ CSM (Corporate Sustainability Management and
Reporting) solution as well as Hyperion Intelligence and Essbase reporting and
analysis solutions.

“Our goal
is to further develop the management and reporting processes for our non-financial
information, in addition to enhancing the use of non-financial performance data
as part of our management systems,” said development manager Ulla Rehell
from Kesko.

The EnQ CSM application
allows Kesko to manage documentation and to collect, consolidate, analyse and
report sustainability performance data from different corporate systems and
locations according to international guidelines such as the GRI reporting guidelines
and related technical protocols. The data gathered will be used for internal
performance management and reporting as well as for consolidating data for annual
GRI-based sustainability reporting and other stakeholder reporting.

“We are very
happy about Kesko’s decision to implement our non-financial management
and reporting solution. We believe that the importance of systematic monitoring
and analyzing of non-financial data will increase, and that the tools and processes
of financial reporting will also be applied to non-financial performance measurement
and reporting. Our solution enables the integration of non-financials to financial
performance measurement in such a way that management is able to gain a more
thorough picture of the organisation's performance. An integrated system also
allows corporate responsibility issues to be truly integrated into existing
decision-making processes,” said Product Manager Tomi Pajunen from Proventia
Solutions and Mika Salminen, MD of Hyperion Finland.

The gases are then cooled, transforming them to a liquefied...
